Draft 13 to 14 - Watershed
============================================================================================
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------

============================================================================================
DLB's issues with their own numbering
============================================================================================
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T1 | 2.2.2.2 recovery MUST be undertaken | fixed text
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T2 | 2.2.6.1 target name may be ignored- replace with | fixed text
| MAY be omitted |
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T3 | 2.2.6.1 upper case MUST in name requirements | fixed text
| and in encoding |
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T4 | 2.2.6.3.1 .iqn - needs date unammbiguous | fixed based on DLB
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T5 | Synch and Steering bloated - for what we choose | fixed text
| WHAT a WASTE of EFFORT! |
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T6 | Clarify text in 2.3 about discovery | Changed MAY accept to
| | equivalent MUST ONLY and
| | spelled-out rejects
| | MUST stays - nothing fancy
| | in discovery
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T7 | Portal defined by IP address does work through NAPT | It is not a protocol
| | element - rather a model
| | entity. In case of NAPT the
| | model entity name may change
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T8 |2-concerns - the underlying issue stems from an obsolete | Removed port specific mode
| port specific mode page notion - iSCSI has none | replaced text with session
| parameters | params and removed 2.4.3.2
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T9 |SCSI port name inapropriate | The encoding is meant for SCSI
| | and it has no padding in the
| | middle - CHANGED ENCODING
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T10|2.4.3.2 - should not uppercased | 2.4.3.2 is obsolete
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T11| Decimal to binary | limited to numbers that are
| | allowed values less than 2**64
| | and bitstring with defined
| | length less than 2**64
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T12| large-numerical-value does not cover lower than 2**64 | large are on purpose
| | different in order to restrict
| | them
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T13|=30 and clarify when 64k has to be supported | fixed text for 64k support
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T14| Declaration not explained | added a statement to 4.2
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T15| Make TPGT return on login MUST always | MUST sticks
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T16| Second connection issue | I did not use SHOULD as
| | there are recovery scenarios
| | that do not need a second
| | connection.
| | MUST in 4.3.4
| | Rest of text is consistent
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T17| Format Error - 6.4 | Examples are out of place
| | and have been removed
| | legal values are specified
| | in chapter 9
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T18| Text on abort after an ULP timeout | Fixed text. There is only
| | one specific Abort Task
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T19| Conservative reuse in 8.1.1 SHOULd is appropriate | changed to SHOULD
| | SCSI reference already i
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T20| MUST support and use autosense in 8.2 | fixed text
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T21| Guidance for timeouts in 8.3 set too low | raised
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T22| Padding replace SHOULD with MUST be sent as 0 | why is that better?
| | receiver always ignores pad
| | testing is implicit in CRC
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T23|o, u etc not exclusive is a protocol error | made it explicit
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T24| Residual Counts should be reserved when not valid | fixed text
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T25| Task reassign may need LUN | No - we dont want checks if
| | we can avoid them
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T26| Add Task Reassign to list of responses | Fixed
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T27| ExpStatSN spell out for non-first | spelled out
| Additional concern CmdSN | Login is immediate
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T28| Concern about discarding | Discarding refers only to
| | REORDERING QUEUE
| | changed wording
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T29| Logout request request refers to implict login | made the text clearer and
| | added a cross reference from
| | 9.12.8
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T30| Resegmenting may come as a surprize - suggested a | New text for resegmentation
| different request | 9.4 and 9.16
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------

---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T34| Digests CRC MUST be offered | fixed text
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T35| Target and Initiator name not changed | There is a general restriction
| | about restating a key except
| | when allowed and those are not
| | allowed - I added text anyhow
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T36| TargetAlias/InitiatorAlias warning | Only a weak one possible as
| | it can't be enforced
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T37| Unsolicited data inclarity | Already speced in 2.2.4
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T38| IANA text | Fixed - why is that technical
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
T39| IANA registry for keys | Proposed formulation for
| | vendor keys and options
| | Read carefully
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
============================================================================================
ER issues with their own numbering

---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
E15| Vendor MUST allow ISID coordination | fixed text

| | known to the initiator
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
E20| Wording that the A bit MUST not be set for ErrorRecovery| Why? The alternative could
| Level is 0 | be bit is set to 0 by target
| | and ignored by I (no test!)
---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
E21| 9.11.1 why MUST NOT ... that may | text is correct - other

---+----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
E30| Phrasing for immediate data - MUST? | might be confusing - suggest
